Our Orders This Week
Our delicious and nutritious $20 Farmers Pick order this week
(the Acorn Squash missed the picture!)
 
OK just lovely harvests going on despite the roller coaster weather! Seventy degrees Wednesday, will be cool and then cold again by next week with rain in between. Mother Nature just keeps us guessing!

Winter Investment Memberships 
Each season we have a special bonus for new and renewing Investment Members.
This time around we have a choice  between a $50 Gift Certificate to share with someone you like or a Farmhouse Gift Basket including our own Vinegars and Preserves made right here at Moore Farms. Our average Member spends $1250.00 per year on our Online Market: why not boost your spending dollars and earn a 3% - 7% spending dividend to boot? You won't find great investment offers like that out there these days and ours is delicious, too! Click here for more info.

Vote for our Baby Goat's Name!
Since we ended up cancelling Fall Farm day this year due to yucky weather we did not have our customary vote for the new Baby Goat's name. Many thanks to everyone who sent suggestions, we have set up an online voting to make it easier for folks (and us, too!). Mama Josephine has been taking good care of her and she is growing fast. Now we just need to know what to call her: vote for her name when you place your Online Market order. We'll leave the ballot open for the next two weeks so everyone has a chance to vote and we'll have her name for Christmas. Here are the front-runners so far from this week's votes: #1 Grace; #2 tie between Francesque and Niblet; #3 tie between Espresso and Toffee.

December Delivery Schedule
Since the end-of-the-year Holidays land on our normal delivery days we'll be off for two weeks this year. Orders will be available for delivery for the first three weeks of December then we'll be back for the first full week of January. Whew, 2014!!!

Weekly Recipes
Will made this recipe for our Farm Crew's lunch last week and everyone went crazy for it: the soup is creamy without any added dairy.

Vegetable "Chowder"  
with Cornbread, Salad & Baked Apples

To prepare the soup: 
1) Wash, trim and chop 1/2 head of Cabbage (about 2 cups) and 1.5 pounds of Potatoes.

2) Place vegetables in a soup pot and add enough water or broth to cover.

3) Season with salt and pepper, bring to a boil then simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

4) Puree Potatoes and Cabbage with an immersion blender (terrific holiday gift!) or in a food processor or blender. Return to pot.

5) Wash, trim and chop Kale into small pieces, add to soup. Cook for another 5-10 minutes to wilt the Kale, check seasoning before serving with Cornbread and Salad. 

Citrus Salad 
Wash, trim and chop Arugula. Wash, trim and thinly slice Watermelon Radishes. Juice two Oranges and segment the other two. Mix the juice with 1/4 cup Olive Oil, 1 Tablespoon Vinegar, salt and pepper. Toss Arugula, Orange segments, Radish slices with dressing just before serving. 

Baked Apples
Wash Apples, cut in half, trim stem ends and remove cores. Place face-down in a buttered baking dish, pour 1 cup Apple Juice, White Wine or water (or a mixture) over all. Sprinkle with 2 Tablespoons Sugar. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Serve with vanilla ice cream!
